This is for current 6th grade girls who want to try out for the 7th grade team next season. All athletes must have a sports physical to participate. Please contact Coach Thomas if you have any questions!
6th grade students got a hands on Titanic experience today! Teachers simulated the water temperature from the sinking of the Titanic, and students were able to briefly immerse a hand in the water. Then, students practiced using their research skills to see what the actual temperature was the night of the sinking using credible sources.
PGMS Families, In response to the near completion of Viney Grove south to Buchanan and the potential issues traffic on this road may cause, Prairie Grove Middle School is developing a new plan for car rider drop-off and pick-up. Beginning Monday April 29th, car rider drop-off and pick-up is moving to the back of PGMS. Before 7:45, car riders must be dropped off in the unloading zone behind our building. Any students arriving after 7:45 must check-in tardy through the front office. After 2:30, car riders must be picked up in the loading zone behind our building. The car rider line will not open until 2:30 - please do not line up behind PGMS before then. Students leaving before 2:30 must check-out through the front office. Like PGES, PGMS will no longer allow students to check-out after 2:30. It will be right turn only onto Bush Street from PGMS. All traffic related to school business must be conducted using the loop in front of the school. Our North teacher parking lot is not for public use during the school day. These changes to drop-off and pick-up procedures do not change any of our safety regulations. All visitors must enter PGMS through the front office at all times. See the letter and map sent home with your student for more information, and please call us if you have any questions. Thank you!
PGMS Families,
